Message: [QUOTE="Zarathustra, post: 4038069, member: 11285"] USA plays ESTONIA , the loser of a 13 -12 decision to ( host ) Hungary. Russia plays HUNGARY At one point the teams had a combined more Fouls !! than total points!!!! It almost looked like the USA/ RUSSIA game with Estonia creeping back because Hungary had 10 fouls and was in the PENALTY situation. That was the DEATH of USA in the RUSSIAN GAME. After 10 fouls against your team, the PENALTY is that on each following foul against your team, the opposition gets:...... TWO FREE THROWS AND AND .. AND... your opponent gets another POSSESSION of the ball.!!!!. Play SMART USA!!! More fouls ==== Penalty situation!! As the FIBA announcer said : " RUSSIA made the IMPOSSIBLE, POSSIBLE!!" It may be painful to watch , but I may have to see that " upset??" again. Hungary looks like a " team playing as a team" and with some discipline and they do a nice job of filling the passing lanes. LET THE GAMES CONTINUE! [/QUOTE]
